More like an act of “rape” coming in illegally...

I’m sure my buddy’s sister-in-law and her toddler son were “feeling the love” when a drunk illegal rammed into them, grinding their blood, sinew and bone into the highway pavement. Damn Jeb to hell, along with every other open-border/amnesty traitor, lecturing us like we were children. My God, I hate these corrupt politicos with such a burning passion!

We rightfully decry Obama/Holder and their selective enforcement of the law, but these amnesty-pushers in the GOP are of the very same ilk... ignoring the rule of law for decades now, all to enrich their corporate-crony buddies. And now they want to cement their lawless legacy with amnesty.

Crime: The Open Borders Lobby’s Dirty Little Secret

By FrontPage Magazine

FrontPageMagazine.com | October 4, 2005

On August 26, 2005, the Center for the Study of Popular Culture, the Federation for American Immigration Reform, and the Coalition for Immigration Reform of California co-sponsored a conference on illegal immigration at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California. Below are the transcripts of speeches given by three of the participants in that conference: Heather MacDonald, a John M. Olin fellow at the Manhattan Institute; Dr. James Edwards, an Adjunct Fellow at the Hudson Institute; and Dr. Glynn Custred, a Professor of Anthropology at California State University, the East Bay. All three touch on the interrelated nature of illegal immigration and crime in American society. — The Editors.

Heather MacDonald: Thank you. I’m honored to be here at this beautiful spot with such an extraordinary group of thinkers.

I think I detected in Mr. Hayworth’s presentation this morning a slight note of irony towards the mainstream media. I want to continue that a little bit on their treatment of illegal immigration, and take as my text for this morning a Washington Post editorial from August 10th called, “The Reality of Gangs.” Now, the title was misleading. It would have more appropriately been called, “The Unreality of Media Coverage of the Illegal Alien Crime Wave.”

The editorial describes the unending series of maimings, stabbings, killings, that have been unleashed recently in the Northern Virginia area by Mara Salvatrucha – usually shortened in the media to “M13” – a gang predominantly of Salvadoran descent that has spread from its home in Los Angeles across the country.

And predictably the Washington Post called for more social programs to try to dissuade ever-younger Hispanics from joining the gangster life they’re starting at ages 8-12 now. I’ve seen a picture of a class of kids from Shenandoah standing in front of the Washington Memorial in D.C. flashing gang signals.

Even as the Post called for more social spending, it completely ignored the most salient feature of Mara Salvatrucha, which is the astoundingly high number of illegals within its ranks. The Justice Department estimates that more than 50 percent of all members of Mara Salvatrucha are illegal. I talked to an LAPD Officer who deals with this gang daily, and he puts the figures much higher. I’ve heard cops tell me they think it’s almost 100 percent. I think that’s too high, but it’s somewhere between there.

We learned yesterday that Jeb can not run because of his associations.

He was an employee of Lehman Securities that failed and was aquired by Barclays. He followed to Barclays and is currently employed by them. The association with Lehman that led to the banking crisis can not be overcome.

He still has a very high position in Barclays

The ugly truth is that If Bill was the greater lib then where are Romney’s conservative creds anyone can point to?

And yes. It is striking indeed when one stops and gives it serious thought. But the facts are there. If any can show otherwise, I am fully open to being proven wrong and admitting it.

Jeb B. is truly a loony. The word traitor comes to mind. Our country is being invaded, and he continues to sprout this kind of trash. Hey, Jeb Bus, where was your compassion when Terri Schiavo was killed? And how about compassion for law-abiding Americans?

No, it’s a loot fest of Americans as illegals numbering tens of millions, trespass and consume all social services/medical/schools/jobs at will, all while aided and abetted by government with seized American tax dollars.

But if any American ever thinks of allowing some cows graze on BLM land or fails to pay government fees, fines and taxes, the fedgov will send out snipers, gunmen, helicopters, with endless tax paid resources and violently suppress if necessary.

Keep this going for the 2014 cycle and it should be useful against his RINO “herdlings”. Then we can use it to crush his chances at nomination for 2016.

As odious as his remarks are, this is good news because he is self-destructing.

It is an act of love, as well an act of desperation but, we don’t reward criminal behavior

Haha!!! I must confess the same rancor filled my heart (as with this upstanding illegal who only came here out of love).

That said, if I were Jeb Bush’s opponent in any venue, I’d make this photo my campaign ICON with that same subtitle you suggest. :o)

I'm in favor of deporting Jeb Bush and his wife to Cuba where he can feel their pain. We should inflict him upon Cubans as “an act of love”.

You have a point.

But let us say--only for the sake of making the really relevant argument--that for some here illegally, their motive was driven by love of family. One can be sensitive to that fact. But that is only a complete non sequitur as a consideration for amnesty or leftist immigration policies!

The sworn duty of any American office holder is our Constitution; the constituency that American Office Holders must serve is an American constituency. The sensitivity of an American Office Holder that should influence policy formulation, should be solely for the benefit of that American consistency.

If Jeb Bush does not understand that, if he can not distinguish between sympathy for others and duty to his own people, he does not have the mental discipline to ever be trusted with high office.

What you are seeing is incrementalism. He tosses it out there, plants the seed and the libs/media run with it. We just saw Mike Reagan call Tea Partiers nuts and supposed rock ribbed conservative Krauthammer just threw the towel in on Bhenghazi...

Piece by piece your hope is being stripped from you so that come 2014, hell this November, you will accept the ‘inevitible’ and vote for the lib republican.

And one incremental step to liberalism at a time we go.

>Did then Governor Bush uphold his constitutional duty and oath to enforce the border and immigration law?<

.
Who was the last POTUS, PUB or RAT, who actively enforced border and immigration laws?

Please tell.

Well Pelosi has a partner in M.N.S. statements and it’s Jeb Bush.

Pelosi’s personality is fingernails on a chauk board, shrill and annoying.

Jeb’s personality is like watching a box of rocks, dull and boring.
